Captain Marvel (Billy) VS Wonder Woman

Started by tideoftime5 pages

A tough fight. (Much like the BA/WW fight somebody dredged up again)

Despite popular misperception, Billy and Diana have comparable power in a one-on-one fight: she is nearly as strong as he is, they have equal speed (though she edges this with superior combat skills), have equal durability against blunt force attacks (though he has superior invulnerability against many other forms of attack that she, while also resistant, isn't as durable against). Her real advantage comes from her normal equipment: her lasso can subdue him, and her bracers (when used as aids in bludgeoning) and her tiara are capable of harming him in potentially serious ways (as both are capable of harming/killing gods, and have done so before).

The real *underlying* difference, however, between this fight and the one with BA/WW, is CM won't come across as someone Diana senses as evil, or needing to be killed in order to be stopped/reasoned with (and when the writer has CM's "Wisdom of Solomon" kick in, he'd sense the same thing, too). That shifts things a little, and leaves us with a 5/5 split in this case: Diana is capable of subduing CM, and he is equally capable of doing the same, even if it might take him longer on his side of the equation.

Wondy 6/10. The lasso Gets her a quick easy win. without it, I'd say they tie. They've already tied before in WOTG.

Billy 7/10

This was before Her 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Upgrades.

Why do you say that? Not being combative with that question, just genuinely curious. It seems part of a common misconception people have about WW, and CM, for a number of years now. They have generally been scripted by DC as being equals (with each have advantages over the other in various regards, with those advantages not being major or overwhelming in eithers favor).

Wonder Woman.

CM

Diana. 7/10

Her equipment tips the scales too far in her favor for a 5/5 or even a 6/4 IMO.

WW 6/10

CM 8/10

This has been done...

Edit: Merged the older threads.

We have a search function. Here's the explanation and link:

Search Function
K kids, it's come to my attention that everyone hates the search. But it can still be as powerful as the old system.

Here's what you do:

From the search tab, click on "Advanced Search". It will then take you to a new screen. Click on "Advanced Option" and a few new options pop up. Click the box that says "Search Titles Only" and also the one that says "Show Results As Threads" then run your search.

Works wonders.

Thanks, and spread the word.

nice Sig. 😉

could go either way. she wins with all her extra weapons, but i think the good captain takes it if she has her standard weaponry. (bracers and lasso)

wondy 6/10 with all her weaps
CM 6/10 with only her standard weaps

wow im suprised the polls have CM by such a majority. so far 7 to 1. it's should be closer than that.

To say W.W. beats C.M is the same as saying W.W.beats Superman! So to that C.M. wins the same majority that Superman does.

Captain Marvel is roughly the magical counterpart of Superman.

Wonder Woman will go the mile against this fight, but the end result would be the same as her fighting Superman.

CM is now where near Superman's lvl of Speed. And he has none of Superman's projectile powers. Not at all the same.

CM ftw
6/10

too many people underestimate CM
